Or...in this case, worth every clicks!

I've never used it, but thanks for the heads-up.
I'll have a go at it this weekend.

Nice app. Still I'll not use it because it is too heavy for my tastes.

I got a MobiTV from the Handango "free app Friday". Then they wanted to charge me for additional months of use. All I'm saying is be careful of the free apps. They aren't really free. They spam my e-mail, too.
Pocket Informant is a good app, though.

Nice, what else have they offered before?

They've had a few different apps. but I keep forgetting about it. I just happened to go by to check to see if any of my stuff had updates available and saw it myself.

great find man thanks

I downloaded too. Looks good, a bit more complicated that I would have expected. The reference/user's manual is thick with info.

Thanks for providing the manual link.
I've spent a bit of time setting up contacts, icons, unique colors, schedules and now it perpetually crashes with an 'internal crash' error. Soft reset provides no relief. I need to download again. Hopefully this program isn't a house of cards.

Damn, missed it. Maybe we should have a sticky with each weeks freebie as a reminder, or maybe I could put it in my calendar to remind me!!

I found out I needed to download to the device as data card downloads make it 'less stable.'

Thanks for sharing!
I got it as part of Handango's free app friday. I dunno why but for the last two fridays I haven't seen any new free apps, though...
Installed it... it crashed. I haven't tried since then. (And I've reflashed about 30 different ROM versions if my ROM in that time while working on fixes (no.... that's not an exageration... it's been probably more times than that.)
Nice! Thanks for the heads up!
Thanks for the post
I just went to the site and downloaded it, but after, I noticed a warning at the top of the description page telling me "This product is not compatible with AT&T 8925 (Tilt)". Not sure if it will work or not. I'll take a look this weekend and see.
Thanks for the pointer.

I wouldn't worry too much, a new version (version 8 i think?) has been released. This may sound good, i thought so too after I read my mail stating I could upgrade.
So there I was...all excited...then saw those horrible figures...$16.95(or something like that).
Although it's not much, they're still charging us for the upgrade

Drawing Software?

Is there a drawing software for Diamond? Where you can draw with the stylus and then paint your drawing etc? I thought i read about that kind of a software but i cant seem to find it. Maybe it was a dream, haha! Would be awesome though, wouldnt it?

I searched for drawing software, but didnt find any. Can you link me please?
EDIT: Nevermind, i found PocketArtist, its great.

Nice. I've just searched and didn't find a very thorough list of what's out there. At least not in this forum. Just a few short threads with the same couple of image editors referenced.

There's a pretty good roundup of retail programs available on MobileTech Review. Looks like you've found Pocket Artist. It's probably one of the best out there. But it will set you back $20. Well worth the price though.
Here are a few others to check out. Pencil Box Deluxe will set you back about $10, but works well and has some great features. Mobile Atelier works pretty well. This is the free version, but I believe there's also a retail version available. A similar program is VSPainter. It's retail at $25, but there's also a slightly crippled free version available. Then there's PocketPicture. It's pretty basic, but free and good for doodling. And here's another called Mobile Painting.
Then you've got a whole slew of very basic, free, and similar paint-clone programs. Such as PaintWinCE, KidColor, MiTo Team Paint, Paint & Create, and PDAcraft Paint.
Then there are programs like SPB Imageer. Not a drawing program per say, but does have some photo editing capabilities. Same with XnView, and LookMobile.
Have fun drawing!
Thanks alot, man. That was alot of nice drawing tools!

Any Bible Apps???

Any recommendations for a Holy Bible app?
Thanks for all of the recommendations. Here is a list of what you have posted so far...
- http://www.olivetree.com/
- http://www.laridian.com/
- http://www.e-sword.net/pocketpc/ [I really like this app, I have used it (and the desktop version) for awhile. I just don't like that the developer hasn't integrated touch functions yet. The tiny "action" buttons and drop down menus are a bit annoying. I would also like some touch jesturing while scrolling through the text.]

- http://www.youversion.com/
- http://www.acrobible.com/
Any other recommendations??? I will continue to edit new responses. Thanks.
Check out olivetree.com
How about the Torah, the Koran, the Book of Cybalism, the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Book of the Law?

I use olive tree. It works fairly well, not the best designed piece of software but gets the job done.
I've used Pocket Bible since my days with a Handspring Trio!

This one has many bible versions, commentaries, and dictionaries available to choose from, for free, all in one package. Works great in VGA on Pro.
I don't want to sound pedantic but is it the right forum for this subject? I doubt such software is specific to the Raphael device...

Moved to Raph Software. Would also recommend that the OP consider consolidating all the suggestions into the first post if sufficient information is present to help others who might be looking for the same info.
Laridian Pocket Bible
+1 for Laridian.com
I have been very happy with Bible With You by gmpsoft.com. You can download a fully functional trial from their web site.
There really is no true finger friendly PPC bible app out there, but I like Laridian because they allow you to tweak so many options that you can make it somewhat finger friendly ( I can go to about any bible verse just using my finger, but moreso my fingernail). Look at what I mean in the pictures below. Also I like the fact that Laridian has like 140 different types of books or Bibles that you can add to their program.
One I use on my iPod Touch and the Blackberry Bold (which I just sent back and am currently waiting for my Fuze), is YouVersion.com.
While it is free, you'll have to have some type of data plan to use this, since it does connect to their server for the data. But they've got most translations (at least most translations people use), and it is touch friendly.
Obviously I've not seen this yet on the Fuze, BUT I can't wait to check it out.

good stuff, keep it coming. thx to all who are responding.

Well, for those of us who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, there's the Holy Bible (King James Version), the Book of Mormon, The Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price

Great, thanks JonnoB!
My laridian broke. It seems to be conflicting with something else. Has anyone else had this problem?
Another Bible Program I found
The people at AcroBible make an excellent version for the iPhone/iTouch, and offer NASB, NIV, KJV, etc.
I'm not sure how well their app has translated to the WinMo format, but like I said....they did an excellent job with their Apple version.
See them at www.acrobible.com.

Navigation in US now available!! AndNav2 for USA!

AndNav2
There is a new version of AndNav available for Android. Here's a video:

Looks good but from what I can tell, maps aren't going to be the greatest.
At least there will be a decent alternative to using the google maps which require an internet connection. Sometimes I just want to use the GPS without the additional expense.
Just tested on 6.0r1 rom, seems to be working great: http://www.andnav.org/index.php/en/community-forum?task=viewtopic&id=292&p=5
Make sure you donate some money to these guys...they've done a lot of work and delivered something great to the community!
Awesome news ! Been waiting for this myself.
so whens the server gonna be up for free navigation?
i just went to the site and they havent release it for US yet.
It's kind of on the down low right now while they make sure all the kinks are worked out of the new server. I've been playing with is since yesterday and it's looking pretty sweet.
No, I'm not going to post a link. If you're really interested you should be able to find it on their site and I don't want to encourage the overloading of their new server. I'm sure once they make it a bit more public the news will be all over.

1. Yes moving the map tiles takes a long time depending on how detailed they are.
2. Ask this question in the AndNav forum where the development is happening

I've been using it a bit since yesterday as well. It works, but there is a lot of communication between the G1 and their servers to make things work.
Look in the downloads area for Trek buddy it creates a lot of the map packs. Tiles.
The site is kinda scattered so I would look around in the forum and yes you do have to be a member to see links.
i don't know if i'm stupid or what, but i still can't find a way to download it lol

Are my Facebook and Google+ buttons working?

Hi guys,
I've just added a Facebook share button and Google+ share button to my site (on the one page for testing). The site is only a hobby and I'm new to Facebook and Google+ and don't usually use those services. However, could you please check or tell me if the buttons are or are not working or doing the right thing when you press them please? (If you use Facebook or Google.)
I'm not much of a coder and spent a while looking for custom button code. Then I simply copied some url's that a couple of other sites are using and wanted to check that it's doing the right thing.
Sorry if this sounds like spam. It's all a little sad really, this being a hobby and me being 44 and all, but I do enjoy it and it keeps me out of trouble.
You needn't share my site of course, but please let me know if the buttons are indeed working as they should.
If not, I'd appreciate a heads up of the correct way to do it.
Thanks a lot. :good:

The buttons work fine, mate. I've actually seen your site before, don't remember how I found it though.

LOL. I lost respect for you when I popped into your freeware recommendations (you can tell a lot about people by the freeware utilities they run) and I saw you have Realplayer in there. LOL. It is CANCER for the PC.
But you redeemed yourself when I saw Truecrypt in your list. :victory:

Thanks. The freeware isn't a personal recommendation, and I don't use some of it. I just like to think that it all helps newcomers (noobs) when it comes to the world of PC's.
I must admit, apart from trying the Android version to screenshot it, I haven't defaulted to RealPlayer in many years (if I even did).
Thanks both of you for your replies. I will update the other pages after work tonight.
If you have any suggestions of other stuff which might help newcomers in any of the included fields, just throw it my way.
Have a good day.
